Explain why organisms are more likely to be well preserved in mud than in sand

Vsevolod [243]

Mud has alot of water so it's easier for them to live in.

Consider the following reaction: CHCl3(g) + Cl2(g) → CCl4(g) + HCl(g) The initial rate of the reaction is measured at several di

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer : The correct rate law for the reaction is,

$\text{Rate}=k[CHCl_3][Cl_2]^{1/2}$

Explanation :

Rate law : It is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$CHCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow CCl_2(g)+HCl(g)$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[CHCl_3]^a[Cl_2]^b$

where,

a = order with respect to $CHCl_3$

b = order with respect to $Cl_2$

Expression for rate law for first observation:

$0.0035=k(0.010)^a(0.010)^b$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

$0.0069=k(0.020)^a(0.010)^b$ ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

$0.0098=k(0.020)^a(0.020)^b$ ....(3)

Expression for rate law for fourth observation:

$0.027=k(0.040)^a(0.040)^b$ ....(4)

Dividing 1 from 2, we get:

$\frac{0.0069}{0.0035}=\frac{k(0.020)^a(0.010)^b}{k(0.010)^a(0.010)^b}\\\\2=2^a\\a=1$

Dividing 2 from 3, we get:

$\frac{0.0098}{0.0069}=\frac{k(0.020)^a(0.020)^b}{k(0.020)^a(0.010)^b}\\\\1.42=2^b\\b=\frac{1}{2}$

Calculation used :

$1.42=2^b\\\log (1.42)=b\log 2\\\log (\frac{1.42}{2})=b\\b=0.5=\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, the rate law becomes:

$\text{Rate}=k[CHCl_3]^1[Cl_2]^{1/2}$

1/2-life of pyruvic acid in the presence of aminotransferase enzyme (which converts it to alanine) was found to be 221 s. how lo

Ugo [173]

Answer:

After 1326s, the concentration of pyruvic acid fall to 1/64 of its initial concentration.

Explanation:

The first order kinetics reaction is:

ln [A] = ln [A]₀ - kt

<em>Where [A] is concentration after t time, [A]₀ is intial concentration and k is reaction constant.</em>

To convert half-life to k you must use:

t(1/2) = ln 2 / K

221s = ln 2 / K

K = ln 2 / 221s

If [A] = 1/64, [A]₀ = 1:

ln [A] = ln [A]₀ - kt

ln (1/64) = ln 1 - 3.1364x10⁻³t

4.1588 = 3.1364x10⁻³s⁻¹t

1326s = t

<h3>After 1326s, the concentration of pyruvic acid fall to 1/64 of its initial concentration.</h3>

A bottle of wine contains 9.81 grams of C2H5OH, dissolved in 87.5 grams of water. The final volume of the solution is 100.0 mL.

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

[EtOH] = 2.2M and Wt% EtOH = 10.1% (w/w)

Explanation:

1. Molarity = moles solute / Volume solution in Liters

=> moles solute = mass solute / formula weight of solute = 9.8g/46g·mol⁻¹ = 0.213mol EtOH

=> volume of solution (assuming density of final solution is 1.0g/ml) ...

volume solution = 9.81gEtOH + 87.5gH₂O = 97.31g solution x 1g/ml = 97.31ml = 0.09731 Liter solution

Concentration (Molarity) = moles/Liters = 0.213mol/0.09731L = 2.2M in EtOH

2. Weight Percent EtOH in solution (assuming density of final solution is 1.0g/ml)

From part 1 => [EtOH] = 2.2M in EtOH = 2.2moles EtOH/1.0L soln

= {(2.2mol)(46g/mol)]/1000g soln] x 100% = 10.1% (w/w) in EtOH.
